ERG, King’s College London 3 LB of Greenwich – AQAP Report 2008 Executive Summary This is the Air Quality and Action Plan Progress Report 2008 for the London Borough of Greenwich (“the Council”). This report fulfils this part of the Council’s commitment to the continuing Local Air Quality Management (LAQM) process. This Report provides an annual update of recent air quality issues in Greenwich, including an update on recent air quality in the Borough, obtained from its monitoring results as well as a focus on the Council’s progress on reducing air pollution through its Air Quality Action Plan. The Council’s earlier Review and Assessments of air quality confirmed that there were locations across the Borough with relevant public exposure where the Government’s air quality objectives might be exceeded. The more up to date monitoring of nitrogen dioxide and PM 10 in this report confirms that the Government’s air quality objectives are still being exceeded widely at locations with relevant public exposure. The Council will therefore maintain its AQMA for these two pollutants. The Council’s monitoring results for benzene and sulphur dioxide indicate that the objectives for these pollutants are not being exceeded. The report also includes a section on the Council’s ozone and PM 2.5 monitoring. The monitored results confirm that the ozone objective has been exceeded in the Borough. The Government’s “backstop” objective for PM 2.5 however has not been exceeded. The purpose of the Council’s Air Quality Action Plan is to ensure that air quality is considered corporately and to seek to reduce air pollution within the Borough, in pursuit of the Government’s air quality objectives. The Council is however limited in its abilities to influence local air quality, firstly as a result of pollution arising elsewhere in London (and beyond) and secondly because it has limited responsibility for the main sources of emissions within the Borough. Major roads in the Borough are not the responsibility of the Council. The plan however includes measures to seek to reduce traffic flow and vehicle emissions that are consistent with other Council policies. The Council’s progress on the individual actions is given in Table 12 within the report. The Council is maintaining, as well as seeking to enhance, both its monitoring and dissemination of data for planning and assessment purposes. The Action Plan originally included 62 actions. This report confirms that a 13 were completed. The remaining actions are all on going. 4 ERG, King’s College London LB of Greenwich – AQAP Report 2008 This page has been left blank intentionally.

Introduction and Context We are instructed by Aggregate Industries UK Ltd (AI) to submit representations to the Draft New London Plan, which was issued for consultation on 1 December 2017. Aggregate Industries are at the frontline of the construction and infrastructure industries, producing and supplying an array of construction materials. With over 330 sites and more than 4100 dedicated employees, they produce everything from aggregates, asphalt, ready-mixed concrete and precast concrete products. AI also produce, import and supply materials for cement and offer national road surfacing and contracting services. Within London AI import significant amounts of material via their safeguarded wharf and railhead sites. These sites also tend to accommodate and co-locate a range of associated mineral plant/infrastructure including for the purposes of concrete batching, operated under the name London Concrete, asphalt production and minerals recycling. To assist in understanding the AI sites and operations within London, a ‘Site Overview for London Plan’ document has been produced by AI and is attached at Document 1. This in particular highlights the significant issues the operator has had in protecting their operations and sites.

    London Plan Implementation Report Safeguarded Wharves on the River Thames London Plan Implementation Report January 2005 Cover photo stories: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1 JJ Prior delivering aggregates to RMC Fulham (Comley’s Wharf). The aggregates, sand and gravel, originate from Prior’s quarry at Fingringhoe on the River Colne near Colchester. Prior owns seven aggregate vessels ranging in size from 250 to 600 tonne cargo carrying capacity. The vessels load directly from the quarry and delivery direct to upriver aggregates facilities, carrying approximately 160,000 tonnes per year. These small ships make a huge contribution to keeping heavy lorries off London’s streets. In recognition of this, the company has received several Freight Facilities Grants towards the cost of vessel refurbishment. 2 A panorama of two safeguarded Wandsworth terminals: Cringle Dock, a waste transfer station owned by the Western Riverside Waste Authority and operated by Cory Environmental; and RMC Battersea, owned and operated as a concrete batching plant by RMC. These two berths primarily handle cargo that has been transhipped within the Port of London, sea-dredged aggregates and cement arriving at RMC Battersea from terminals in Greenwich, Northfleet and Greenhithe and household waste barged from Cringle Dock to Mucking in Essex. In 2001, over 375,000 tonnes of cargo was handled at these two terminals, which kept over 51,000 lorry movements of the capital’s streets. 3 A Cory Environmental owned tug pulling a pair of dumb barges upstream through Lambeth Bridge carrying empty containers for loading with household waste at two safeguarded water transfer stations in Wandsworth (Western Riverside Waste Transfer Station and Cringle Dock).
